Okay, I know this is going to sound stupid but when you do like a long underscore line, it autoformats to something else and I don't know what's autoformatting to. I just want to make my own lines, not the weird cannot be deleted Word Line Thing. What is that thing? And I can't find the box for that.

I wish my mom had more compassion for my grandma (who is dying). She is not a caregiver, the whole family knows. But they live together and she is "officially responsible", and (it breaks my heart to hear about it, in every possible way).

Boyfriend and I are going to look at and apply for an apartment we want today. I don't know what to wear to look like I'm a respectable, responsible person that the landlords would like to rent to. We really want this place.

Jeans and a t-shirt? Is that a situation people really dress nicely for? I have lots of visible tattoos and dress pretty casually and have never had a problem renting a place in person.

That is a pain in my rear at work. That changing of the underscore line to something else altogether that looks shabby and unprofessional drives me to a complete and utter ragetastic mood. When it auto-formats I go to edit then choose undo auto-format. Then marvel at how much better it looks my way rather than microsofts way.

This. Also, right after it happens, a little box will pop up in front that has a lightening bolt on it. if you click on that, you can tell it to stop automatically creating border lines.It's also under File > Options > Proofing > AutoCorrect Options > AutoFormat As You Type and then you click on border lines.

Good luck! How exciting!

If you were looking in the North East, I'd say shirt and dress pants, but I don't know what the appropriate attire would be in Portland. I would say you can't go wrong with business casual :)

Oooooooh! Must try that! Although I don't think we can save things like that on the work computers. I think once you log out it resets all the settings back to the standard settings.

I'm so frustrated with my work right now that I'm in a "I don't give a fork" mood today. And my interview is probably going to be today for the position that I've really wanted for a while. Awesome.

I went upstairs to my bedroom and it smells really strongly of candles. I have not been burning candles in there (ever, I don't think), but there is a wall vent in the party wall that I assume is the reason I can sometimes smell pot.

Should I be worried that my neighbours have got a lot of candles going? Am I going to be burned to a crisp in my bed tonight? Do I worry too much about everything? (I haven't seen that spider in hours, but that doesn't mean I don't think it's going to leap at my face every time I go near the sink now!)

i don't know how people spend the whole day in an office. I spent my entire day (830-630) in a small room and i have a headache from fluorescent lights, a sore throat, and a case of the stabbies. made me feel almost relieved to get home and translate 5 pages....

I keep wanting to post more videos of me Ukuleleing but every time I go to record whatever it is I'm working on I keep messing up the songs! But when not recording can often play it the whole way through. :P

Ah, that's so frustrating. What's been annoying me is managing to do a halfway decent recording on my phone and then realising my phone's format for recordings seems unaccountably difficult to re-format so that people can actually listen to it.
